the sisters on Maui

Wednesday, August 27, 2014

We got to go and clean the
battleship at Pearl Harbor which was
super fun as always!

We had some fun this week… We have
this one sweet sister who comes out with us on visits a lot while she is
preparing for her mission. we went to visit this one house but the lady wasn't
interested so we turned and as we were walking away, my companion went to look
at a sign that was hanging by the door. The other sister and I kept walking
then my companion read the sign. it said "we shoot every third
salesman..." and she turned around and ran to catch up with us so
quickly!!! she was like "wait up!" haha

So this transfer was a 4 week
transfer since a bunch were headed back to college life.The next two are 7 week transfers and then we
will be caught up and go back to 6 week transfers…..SO…. i guess I am going to
go off island. I'm flying to Maui Wednesday morning. It looks like i will be
team training a new missionary. So i'll be in a tripanionship I think. should
be fun. so that's the news.

So in the mission when they train a
new missionary they call them their “daughter”…the trainer is the “mother”.Rachel’s whole group that came out 66 weeks
ago have been “barren’there has not
been new proselyting sisters coming in … most go to the visitors center.So she is so excited to train…to “be a mom”…she
jokingly sent this picture to us saying “I am a mother !!

Our ward is so great. They have been
getting very involved in the work and have been helping us a lot. I am going to
miss these great people!

We had another lesson with our great
book of Mormon reader. We taught about the word of wisdom. and he loved it and
said he's cutting out caffeinated drinks and soda too. he's awesome! So then we
still had time so we taught him the law of chastity and the law of tithing and
he agreed to live all these laws and keep these commandments. He is so
prepared! I am really going to miss having lesson with him!

I am grateful for my weaknesses~they
help me learn~ I just want to be able to do and be what the Lord expects of me
and give everything to his work.

sorry this week's letter is so short
and uninspiring. We have been finding out transfer news and such and I can't
think of pretty much anything else. I promise that I am learning a lot and that
we had a great week! but sorry that I couldn't convey that in this letter.
